We’ve Got Decades of Oscar Dresses to Drool Over

Admit it, part of the reason you love the Oscars so much is because of the dresses. We’re right there with you, in fact if you’re looking for us on Monday morning, we’ll be gathered around the office coffee machine, discussing our favorite outfits of the evening. So, imagine our excitement when we came across this incredible chart, which details all of the ensembles worn by Best Actress winners since 1929. Pretty incredible, right?

Created by MediaRun as a case study, we can’t imagine the level of research this must have involved, but we sure are appreciative of their hard work. We love looking back at the shifts in silhouette, style, and length over the past decades. Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments!

About Julie O.

A lover of all things vintage and vintage-inspired, Julie bought her first 1950s frock in the fifth grade. Since then, Julie has become a self-described connoisseur of vintage and thrift shopping, which she shares on her blog, Orchid Grey. When she’s not scouring the racks for the perfect vintage skirt, this native New Englander can be found deftly navigating the slopes of a ski mountain, taking road-trips to the beach, and exploring new places with a vintage camera in her hand.
